Counting integral points near curves: an exposition
We give a detailed account of the recent work of Hickman and Srivastava on counting integral points in a $ δ$-neighbourhood of a dilate $ q \mathcal{M} $ of a non-degenerate curve $ \mathcal{M} \subset \mathbb{R}^{n} $, $ n \ge 3 $. Our aim is expository: we simplify the proof, provide additional details, refine the statement of the theorem and provide calculations from a more fundamental perspective. We also formulate a new conjecture based on recent work of Chen, Seeger, Srivastava and Technau.
